Best Acne Treatment Ever Discovered – This is How to Give Severe Acne the Boot

If you have severe acne, at least one visit to the doctor to make sure you don’t have some treatable underlying condition is probably a good idea. The hard work of getting rid of acne, however, is going to fall to you. Fortunately one herbal remedy outshines all the others in helping you keep acne away once you have it under control.

The nodules and cysts of severe acne don’t just disfigure the skin, they cause both physical and emotional pain. If you have had severe acne for a year, several years, or most of your life, you are probably more than willing to endure the pain and expense of conventional medical treatment with Accutane or Retin-A.

And if we’re all honest about it, it the short term these treatments hurt like heck but they do finally open up the skin. The heavy artillery of modern dermatology will start the healing process in ways that no other approach can match.

Once those nodules and cysts have begun to heal, however, an herbal approach may be best for keeping the from ever coming back.

Tea tree oil is a treatment that kills acne bacteria as completely as benzoyl peroxide, but with an added bonus. Unlike Retin-A, Accutane, or benzoyl peroxide, tea tree oil also kills the strep bacteria that can find their way into longstanding acne sores. And if you use not just a tea tree cream but also a calendula soap, you get additional protection against acne bacteria and also protection against staph.

Tea tree oil has another advantage over the pharmaceutical treatments. It does not dry out the skin. Benzoyl peroxide is a mild skin peel that lifts dead skin off clogged pores. Unfortunately, it is so mild that it just deposits that dead skin over other pores. It clears up some blemishes and triggers others. Tea tree oil does not have this affect.

If you have sensitive or allergy-prone skin, there is one other herbal product in a healing trifecta. Neem oil soap reduces the sensitivity of sensitive skin. It leaves skin feeling fresh, and it can tackle a wider range of skin issues including eczema, contact dermatitis, and psoriasis in addition to acne. Use all three products together for skin care maintenance that is even better than Accutane and Retin-A.
